Hi, I'm Sisi, a language nerd excited about video game writing, localization, and sensitivity reading! (Fun fact: I taught myself Italian so I could read Dante's Divina Commedia in its original language.)

Professional Summary:

• Game lover with 4+ years of project management experience and 8+ games released on Itch
• Managed $100,000+ contracts and co-developed websites reaching thousands of users
  
• Localized 7,000+ words from Italian to English in 3 weeks after teaching myself OmegaT
• Finished a sensitivity reading of a ~75,000 word manuscript in 3 weeks for a young adult novel referencing Asian cultures 

I’ve been writing my whole life, ranging from National Novel Writing Month entries, through environmental consulting websites, to text-based interactive fiction games.

My goal: spreading the joy and magic of video games through storytelling. Specifically, helping more people feel the awe that I felt playing World of Warcraft Classic for the first time, where everything combined beautifully to be greater than the sum of their parts. That’s the magic I want to share.

I'm excited to learn, collaborate, and grow while befriending more people in the games, translation, and writing industries! You can reach out to me on LinkedIn or on Discord.
